“I was misled signing an affidavit i never read” -Kibalama

“I was misled signing an affidavit i never read” -Kibalama
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Security at Twed towers in Nakasero that also houses the court of Appeal is beefed up to restrain NUP supporters from swarming court as former  National Unity and Reconciliation party president Moses Kibalama appears  to explain to the judge why he swore 2 contradicting affidavits regarding the sale and change of his party to  2021 Presidential aspirant Robert Kyagulanyi Ssentamu aka Bobi Wine .

The National Unity and Reconciliation party has since changed its name to National Unity party (NUP)

Kibalama who had been allegedly reported missing before security agencies came up to claim that he is under their protection   has however portioned the blame to  his first lawyer Anthony Wameeli  and other lawyers from NUP headquarters   who misled him into signing  an affidavit whose contents he had not read .

Kibalama; a  former Superintendent of police during presidents’ Obote and Amin’s regimes has turned himself in court in  response  to summons issued to him last week by High court judge Musa Ssekaana to throw more light on his 2 affidavits ; one being in  support of an application filed by  aggrieved founder members of NURP to the sale of their party to Kyagulanyi while; in the other he accepts voluntarily to change the party’s name he has been heading since 2004  to NUP.

While being asked  by  EC lawyer Eric Sabiiti whey he had to make 2 contradicting pieces of evidence which also constitutes an offence of giving false information to a public body  , Kibalama has replied that he was compelled to make a U-turn on the change of his party name because him and some of the founder members of NURP  were not given any slots in NUP which he says has now gained political fame .

It’s at this moment that Kibalama says he was intrigued to seek legal advise and make consultations from another lawyer whom he has also  wrongly identified  in court as James Byamukama .

This has thrown court into giggles  because Kibalala gave instructions to a  lawyer known as Enoc Waninda whereas  James Byabakama was instructed to represent other founder members.  A quick interpretation of  Kibalama’s evidence shows that the 59 year old  is still interested in the leadership of his party .

Kibalama is still on the witness stand ; answering questions from NUP lawyer Medard  Lubega  Ssegona who has since established that the affidavit retracting his earlier affirmations of agreeing to change the party name is signed 4 hours  earlier than the one accepting to voluntarily to do so.

Kibalama adds that they had negotiated with Bobiwine’s to advance them with some money but by the time of finalizing negotiations, the other side had not honored its promise.

Basile Difas and Hassan Twaha claiming to be founding members of NURP in August ran to court accusing Kibalama and ten other people of selling their part to Kyagulanyi and changing the party’s name without any authorization

After unveiling rocket mouthed journalist Bbwaddene Basajjamivule, the ruling National Resistance Movement party could yet again add to the number of it’s ever growing recruits from the Kamwokya based National Unity Paltform (NUP) opposition party. Unconfirmed reports coming in reveal that President Museveni chief fisherman Balaam Barugahara could yet again be on the verge of landing a very big fish for his master in the name of none other than the popular NUP singer Hillary Kiyaga aka Hilderman. The Mazongoto singer was set to challenge Trade Minister Amelia Kyambadde for the Mawokota MP seat before he reportedly chickened out in favor of a mega deal dangled before him by the cunning Museveni fixer Balaam. Hill Water It has been reported that the powerful Minister had over the last few months courted the events promoter Balaam in a bid to convince him plead with Hilderman to drop his parliamentary bid in exchange for some juicy offer from the ruling side. After a long period of playing hard to get, we have established that Hilderman, one of the few musicians that have stayed by Bobi Wine’s side through thin and thick has finally succumbed to Balaam’s trickery, giving up on his strong ally in the process. It’s also reported that Mr Kiyaga was set to meet the President in the past couple of days but the busy political schedule with the CEC and this week’s NRM primaries have continuously led to the deferral of the program. We have since learnt that a meeting between Hilderman and the President is on schedule before a mega announcement that would most certainly leave the NUP boss – Bobi Wine nursing a broken spine.
